1. This little peeking figure.

Some think this very small image is an owl or a spider. As far as anyone can tell, it was really just a slip of the original engraver’s hand that nobody noticed at the time.

2. The letter in the circle.

This symbol marks which Federal Reserve bank the bill came from. This one’s from San Francisco, which is the 12th bank to make up the reserve and so is marked with the 12th letter.

3. The number 13.

The pyramid has 13 steps, and the eagle is holding 13 arrows and an olive branch with 13 berries, and has 13 stars over its head. Anyone who sees a conspiracy forming can relax and remember there were 13 states when the US began.

4. The Roman numeral at the pyramid’s base.

It just spells out 1776, the year of American independence.
